Abstract Background Hemodialysis (HD) patients suffer from musculoskeletal disorders. The most reported musculoskeletal problem is arthralgia. Hip arthralgia has been commonly reported in patients undergoing HD. Hip pain can lead to a decrease in levels of physical activity, limitation in joint range of motion, and consequently difficulties in performing activities of daily living (ADL) and impair the quality of life (QoL). The aim of the study is to reveal the prevalence of hip pain and related factors in HD patients. This cross-sectional study included 73 patients on prevalent HD whose ages ranged from 25 to 65 years and who were on HD for more than 6 months. Physical examination and radiological imaging were done to every patient. Visual analog scale, Barthel Index, and Short Form-36 were used to evaluate pain, ADL, and QoL, respectively. Results Hip arthralgia was detected in 32 patients. Around 43% of which were diagnosed hip osteoarthritis, 34% greater trochanteric pain syndrome, 15% femoroacetabular impingement, and 6% soft tissue calcifications. Diabetes mellitus and hemodialysis duration were found to be significantly different between the groups of hip pain and without hip pain. Diabetes mellitus was identified as an independent risk factor for hip pain in hemodialysis patients. ADL and QoL were significantly lower in patients with hip pain compared to those without (p < 0.01; p < 0.05, respectively). Conclusions The results of our research show that HD patients should be screened for the presence of hip pain and other musculoskeletal disorders and that this is an area which requires further consideration and medical research.

Background: Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs) are the most common and largest category of work-related illness seen both in a developed & developing country. Purpose: The purpose of the study to assess the MSDs of Cycle Rickshaw (CR) Pullers & to find out the significance between MSDs with related variables. Material & Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted among 136 CR Pullers residing in the Dhaka Metropolitan city. Purposive sampling technique was used where data were collected by a structure administered questionnaire with face to face interview & data was analyzed by SPSS (Version 20). Results: Results indicated that the prevalence of MSDs was 91% where upper back, lower back, leg & calf muscle, & knee joint was the more prevalent site. Some ergonomics and work related factors are responsible for developing MSDs. However, there was a significant relationship between MSDs with weight bearing (P<0.05) & daily rickshaw pulling time (p<0.05). In addition, an extremely high significant relationship found between MSDs with age (p<0.001) and BMI (p<0.001). Conclusion: It is concluded that MSDs among CR pullers were extremely high. Awareness of ergonomics and work-related factors might help to prevent and reduce the prevalence of MSDs among CR pullers.

Introduction. A variety of musculoskeletal disorders (MS) have been associated with diabetes mellitus (DM). This study aimed at assessing the prevalence and associated factors of MS disorders in Moroccan diabetic patients. Methods. A cross-sectional study enrolled consecutive patients with DM. We recorded demographic features of patients and characteristics of DM. MS disorders and vascular complications were assessed by clinical examinations and investigations. Associated factors of MS disorders were assessed by univariate and multivariate analyses. Result. 376 subjects were included; 84.6% had type 2 DM. The participants’ median age was 54 years [45–62]; 41% had one or more vascular complications. 34.4% had one or more MS disorders. Osteoarthritis was present in 19.4% of patients. Hand disorders were seen in 14.4%. Shoulder capsulitis was present in 12.5%. Long duration of diabetes and dyslipidemia were associated with increased prevalence of hand abnormalities (P=0.017; P=0.019, respectively). Age and dyslipidemia were associated with shoulder capsulitis (P=0.019; P=0.047, respectively). Female gender, overweight, and nephropathy were associated with increased odds of osteoarthritis (P=0.009, P=0.004, and P=0.032, respectively). Conclusion. MS disorders are frequent in this population and associated with various factors. HbA1c level does not appear to be associated with development of MS disorders.

ObjectiveWomen in different age phases have different metabolism and hormone levels that influence the production and excretion of uric acid. We aimed to investigate the prevalence and related factors of hyperuricaemia among women in various age phases.Study designObservational, cross-sectional study.SettingData were obtained from women at three health check-up centres in Shanghai.ParticipantsAdult women from three health check-up centres were recruited. Exclusion criteria were individuals with pregnancy, cancer, incomplete information. Finally, 11 601 participants were enrolled.ResultsThe prevalence rates of hyperuricaemia of total subjects were 11.15% (95% CIs 10.57% to 11.72%). The prevalence of hyperuricaemia in 18–29, 30–39, 40–49, 50–59, 60–69 and ≥70 years old was 6.41% (95% CI 4.97% to 7.86%), 5.63% (4.71% to 6.55%), 6.02% (5.01%% to 7.03%), 11.51% (10.19% to 12.82%), 16.49% (15.03% to 17.95%) and 23.98% (21.56% to 26.40%), respectively. Compared with 18–29 years old, the ORs for hyperuricaemia in other age phases were 0.870 (95% CI 0.647 to 1.170, p=0.357), 0.935 (0.693 to 1.261, p=0.659), 1.898 (1.444 to 2.493, p<0.001), 2.882 (2.216 to 3.748, p<0.001) and 4.602 (3.497 to 6.056, p<0.001), respectively. During the 18–29 years old, the related factors for hyperuricaemia were obesity and dyslipidaemia. During the 30–59 years old, the related factors were obesity, dyslipidaemia, hypertension and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Over the 60 years old, the occurrence of hyperuricaemia was mainly affected by obesity, dyslipidaemia and CKD, while hypertension cannot be an impact factor for hyperuricaemia independently of obesity and dyslipidaemia.ConclusionAfter 50 years old, the prevalence of hyperuricaemia in Shanghai women has increased significantly and reaches the peak after 70. Obesity and dyslipidaemia are two main related factors for hyperuricaemia during all ages, while diabetes mellitus and nephrolithiasis have no relationship with hyperuricaemia throughout. CKD is an independent impact factor for hyperuricaemia after 30 years old.

<p>Physical inactivity is a major health problem in developing countries. Regular Physical Activity (RPA) can reduce the risk of many diseases such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and obesity that are prevalent in middle and old ages specifically in women. The (RPA) status among middle-aged Iranian women is not well known. The purpose of this study was to investigate the physical activity status and related factors among middle-aged women in Hamadan, a city in western Iran. The participants of this cross-sectional study were comprised of 866 middle-aged women in Hamadan who were selected using a proportional stratified random sampling method in 2015. The participants completed a self-administered questionnaire containing demographic characteristics and an International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form (IPAQ-S).The data were analyzed with SPSS-16 software using Multi- nominal Logistic Regression. The results revealed that about 57% of the study population was inactive or not sufficiently active (light level). Additionally, the results showed that less than a quarter of the study participants (19.3%) exhibited a severe level of physical activity. The associations between RPA and age, education level and job were significant (P&lt;0.05). The chi-square test revealed a significant difference in RPA with regards to residency locations (P&lt;0.05). The demographic variables relationship with physical activity appears to be important and these findings can be a prelude to design of effective intervention strategies in promoting physical activity.</p>
